MAINTENANCE

CUTTING CURVED LINE WITH A TEMPLATE

To cut a curved line, you can use a curved template to guide the router base.

1.Make a template from hardboard or other similar material to the shape you require (see Fig. 20). NOTE: Radius of curve must be greater than 2 ½” for router base to properly follow the curved template.

2.Mark the location of the cut to be made.

3.Mark the workpiece approximately 2 7/16” back into the workpiece (away from the cutting line).

4.Clamp the template onto the larger portion of the workpiece that is to be clamped while cutting.

5.Place the curved portion of the router base against the template with the bit near the start of the cutting line. NOTE: Check bit location to ensure cut will be made in the correct location.

6.Turn the switch ON while firmly holding the tool.

7.Slide the router plate against the template while making the cut.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

!DANGER

For your own safety, turn the switch OFF and remove the plug from the power source before maintaining your spin saw.

When servicing, use only identical original equipment parts. Use of any other part may create a hazard or cause product damage.

EXTERNAL CLEANING

!WARNING

DO NOT use solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloth to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

Do not at any time allow brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc. to come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.

INTERNAL CLEANING

It has been found that electric tools are subjected to accelerated wear and possible premature failure when they are used on fiberglass boats and sports cars, wallboard, spackling compounds or plaster. The chips and grindings from these materials are highly abrasive to electric tool parts such as bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. During any use on these materials it is extremely important that the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing out with a compressed air jet.

!DANGER

It is critical that you wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a dust mask while blowing dust out of the spin saw with a compressed air jet. Failure to take these safety precautions could result in permanent eye or lung damage.

POWER CORD MAINTENANCE

!WARNING

To avoid shock or fire hazard, replace the cord immediately if it is worn or damaged in any way.

LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this spin saw are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required
